what the deffrant bettwen steam and gas
Maintenance activities in gas turbines typically include regular inspections, cleaning of compressor blades, monitoring and replacing of filters, checking and replacing lubricants, inspecting combustion chamber for leaks or damage, and performing any necessary repairs or adjustments to ensure optimal performance and efficiency of the turbine. Regular maintenance helps to prevent breakdowns and extend the lifespan of the equipment.
Main difference is that in a gas turbine, combustion is continuous. In a piston engine, combustion is pulsed.

Gas turbine works with the use of many kinds of fuel to run a compressor. The compressor will bring the atmospheric air flows through its highest pressure and with the addition of fuel into the air it will ignite and then the combustion will generate a high-temperature flow.
Gas turbine engines takes in air, compresses it, mix it with fuel, then burns it in combustion chamber. then this expanded gas drives the turbine
Hot Gas Path Inspection [HGPI] is well known in Power Plants based on Gas Turbine [GT]. Normally, HGPI executed each 24000 Running hour; provided that the GT is operated in ideal condition [natural gas as fuel, base load operation etc]. In HGPI, the total path of hot gas [hot gas produced in combustion chamber] is inspected. That is Fuel Nozzle -> Combustion Liners -> Transition Piece -> Turbine Blades
By throttling the amount of fuel delivered to the combustion chamber
It sends hot gases from the combustion chamber to the 1st stage turbine blades at the correct angle and speed
Is to check all parts related with hot gas path,for example,in th gas turbine we need to check the fuel nozzle,turbine blades,liners,etc..
No. They are powered by internal combustion engines. Or by gas turbine jets.
Basically, a gas turbine is powered by gas under pressure, The gas is pressurized by burning some type of fuel such as kerosene, jet fuel, or propane. That heat causes air expansion, and the subsequent inflow of air makes the turbine spin. A gas turbine consists of three main parts; a combustion chamber, a turbine and a compressor. Air and fuel are mixed in the combustion chamber where it is ignited and increases in speed and power. This power is directed over the turbine blades which spin the turbine and power the compressor. It's a pretty simple process: heated fuel causes pressure and air expansion. The expanded air causes a turbine to spin. That is how gas turbines like jet engines work.
Yes, they are both used for power generation
